Chemical reactions 2

Well to me it's beautiful ( he says smiling I can't help but notice the warmth in his eyes)
Victoriano stop worrying her, Yvette how's school?
Mom everything is okay, I'm doing well and its more exciting that I'm about to complete
Yes dear it is, Soo I have a business meeting in Spain for about 3 weeks, you'll have to work in the company alone without me, are you gonna be okay?
Yes mom I'll be fine , don't worry about me.
Thanks dear, Victoriano please behave no drinking and parties
Mom I'm 23 you can't possibly ground me even if I do
Oh but I can ( I grab the baseball bat behind the vase) see, Victoriano I have to study and that too in a quiet place so if you bring any speakers here and they go bumbumbum I'll bum bomb your head off ( his smile dies down when he realizes I'm serious)
Oh my God okay , okay no parties.
Thanks Yvette, at least you can check him.
Two days later mom left for Spain. I have been studying and managing the company in her absence, right now I'm in my room checking on the delivery of the perfumes.
Knock knock ( Victoriano enters my room)
I didn't say come in( he smiles and shakes his head)
Well I'm ordering pizza want some?
No I'm good
Yvette you've cooked up in your room all morning you are eating and that's that.
A few minutes later Victoriano and I were eating pizza in the kitchen
Why do you always do that?
Do what?
Stare at me , do I have something on my face?( I say angrily)
No , I just wonder about you
Wonder what, are you wonder woman? You know what for a doctor you talk to much, should you not be singing a lullaby for me to sleep?( I get up to leave but lose my balance and while I was about to fall he grabbed me to sit on him, our faces were inches apart)
Wh....what..what a.rre .....yo..you.doin?( He cups my face in his palm)
I didn't know beautiful, I don't know what you're doing to me ( his face moved closer to mine, I snap back to reality get up and leave, Fred drove me to school. Ellie was blabbering about her date but I wasn't paying attention, I was so lost in what happened this morning)
And he got me some flowers and the necklace is so pre.. hey are you even listening to me? Earth to Evie
Oh that's nice
What's wrong , you never give compliments did someone die??
No... I'm just tried
Evie we only had one class today and it was your favorite subject but you didn't even pay attention what's wrong?!
No...( She cuts me off)
Don't you dare say nothing, girl talk to me
Ellie promise you'll not make a big deal out of it
Oh God who did you kill Evie
Stop, I won't say anything if you keep this up ( she holds my hands and we sit on a bench)
Come on something is definitely wrong with you, I love you and I don't like secrets
It's not that , I'm confused myself, you see this morning Victoriano and I were having pizza and he almost kissed me ( Ellie stares blankly at my face)
Say what now!, Evie you almost kissed someone? Was there a gun to your head?
Well I'm serious
Look , with his looks and charm you are bound to like him, but he's engaged you know better.
Woah woah woah, I don't like him
Evie( she sighs and holds my hands) you have this shield around you and you cover up your emotions with it, but it's okay to like a boy
Ellie don't get all emo with me, I don't like him it's just
Chemical reactions?( She says smiling)
Sort of, Ellie this is not good, he's engaged
He should be worried about that, just stay away from him
Oh very easy it's not like we live in the same house( I say sarcastically)
Victoriano's POV
What was I thinking, I got too close to her, but I wanted to, her smart mouth, her pretty eyes, I wanted kiss her hell I still want to. But she's been avoiding me, nowadays when we happen to see each other she runs out of the house, it's cute but it's killing me. Today she wore a red body hugging red dress and her hair was in the usual ponytail. Why I'm I liking this girl,even if my marriage is something else I can't like her, she'll get hurt in the end, and she looks like she can't afford to be hurt. But I can't help it, in a week I'm already crazy about her. I have to make it less uncomfortable for her.
Yvette's pov
I woke up very early today , well I didn't actually sleep , I've been up all night studying, I have a test and I have to pass this class. I wear a black shirt with grey pants, black boots and a white long jacket with my yellow scarf and head downstairs.
I look everywhere for Fred, I'm running late.
Hey Gonzalez have you seen Fred?( I ask the gardener)
Yes he's sick Soo he'll not be coming to work for like... A week
What?!!! I have a test in 40 minutes and I'm already running late
Young madam, just drive one of the SUVs
I would if I could ( I stare at the cars, where is superman to fly you somewhere when you need him)
You can't drive ( Victoriano comes with a smirk)
Yeah,yeah so what? , I really need to get to college in 35 minutes
Get my car , I'll drive you( I'm trying to stay away from him and he wants to drive me, us, alone , in his car?)
No , I'll just take a cab
Don't be stubborn, you need to go to school right? , Get in( I agree and enter the car, the ride was incredibly silent).
Yvette I'm sorry ( he's sorry? ,He's going be all like it was a mistake and he's sorry and that should not have happened oh my God)
It's okay Victoriano, it was a mistake and I'll be careful not to trip and watch my step
Huh? I meant I'm sorry, Fred is sick Soo he'll not be taking you to school for a week
Oh....
Wait did you I'd apologize for the kiss
Almost kiss, almost ( I say boldly, he smiles)
Yvette I'm not sorry about that, if I had my way I'd do it again and again
Victoriano listen to me, I don't have time for any kind of drama in my life, you're not and I don't think this is real, what think you are feeling isn't real , it just chemical reactions in your brain and I don't want anything to do with it
Yvette...
Please stop ( I get out of the car) thanks for the ride
After the test Ellie and I were sitting on a bench comparing our answers when Zach came with coffee
Here babe( he kisses her )
Where's mine
Sorry princess but it's only for my girlfriend ( I roll my eyes at them as they kiss and Ellie giggles) you know you should go on a date, Paul is into you
You mean the idiot that looks like his nose is a science experiment?( Ellie laughs )
Oh God, babe for Evie to date I think an apocalypse would have to happen ( he smiles)
Well I'll see you , babe I'll pick you up at 5
Sure( she waves him)
Soo how are things with Zach?
He's the best, I'm super happy with him
I'm glad, he seems good
Soo what's up with Mr Mexicano?
He drove me to school today and said he still wants to kiss me
Oh that guy, doesn't he have a fiancee to be worried about?
Tell me about it ( speak of the devil and he arrives) Victoriano?
How do you do ladies
What are you doing here?.
I'm picking you up from school, I'm Victoriano ( he extends his hand to Ellie)
Ellie ( she mouths' woah ' at me).
Okay I'll see you Ellie
Bye Evie
I say nothing in the car when we got home he pulled me to the garage
What are we doing here?
We are going to teach you how to drive
Oh no no no you don't( I try walking away but he pulls me back)
Yvette you are a 20 year old in New York City and you can't drive that's not smart
And you are an anesthesiologist who is bothering me, should you not be singing me a song to sleep?
Yeah not happening ( he drags me into the car seat and dear God)
Oh my ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh please I don't want to diee( I scream on top of my lungs)
You're doing it beautiful, keep going
I swear to God Victoriano if we don't die I'll .... Oh .. oh my God I'm doing it

A fee hours later I was able to drive in circles and all over the house
Woohoo that was Soo much fun ( I say as we get out of the car)
Yeah , which part the part where you were going to kill me orrr(  I throw my scrunchie at him)
Thanks Victoriano
Anything beautiful,or should I say chicken?
Huh??
Well you were pretty much a chicken ( I start chasing him around the pool, I lose my balance and when I was about to say he pulled me and we both feel in the pool)
Hey that's not fair( we start splashing water on each other, he stares into my eyes and pulls me close)
Yvette I'm in love with you ( our faces were inches apart and we were Soo close)
Victoriano I can't... You're engaged
I broke up with her, in these few days Yvette you've made me feel things I taught I would never feel, I'm Soo in love with you and I Know you feel something there( I look at him, I don't know what to say and I don't think it's my fault cause I don't even know what I feel, yes ,yes I like him maybe very very very much , when was about to leave he grabs my face and kisses me, my first ever kiss it felt amazing and I don't think.. what I'm not even thinking right now, I pull away and leave the pool running into my room,)
